Posted - Dec 17 2008 : 06:45:24 AM I have been really conscious of where I buy things from and finding made in the USA stuff is difficult. Maybe if we listed companies and websites, we can keep the economy going for the good old USA and keep the Mom and Pops in business.
OBVIOUSLY, there is our SWEET Maryjane.

Posted - Dec 17 2008 : 9:32:21 PM This is one of my New Years Resolutions for 2009. I think we need to send a message to our businesses and greedy corporate types that we want good quality products, made in America, by Americans.
Right now, is the time to make your money count, especially since most have less to work with, or are more cautious with it.
Hit em' where it hurts. Like mentioned in another thread, it got rid of the hormones and anti-botics in dairy products, the BPA plastics, HFCS etc. A lot of companies are reconsidering sending/outsourcing jobs overseas.
Don't miss out on a blessing, just because it isn't packaged the way you expected. ~MaryJo Copeland |
